Hey Guys,
From the D-GCC frontend README:
This is a D front end for the GCC compiler. It uses the original DMD
front end
sources.
Supported Systems
* GCC 3.3.3, 3.4-20040317
* Linux Red Hat 8
* Mac OS X 10.3.2
Similar versions will probably work. Although the compiler will
probably work on different 32-bit architectures and environments, the
D runtime library will still need to be updated to support them.

* This Project -- http://home.earthlink.net/~dvdfrdmn/d
* The D Programming Language -- http://www.digitalmars.com/d/
* The GNU Compiler Collection -- http://gcc.gnu.org/

See INSTALL for build instructions.
Status
What's Working
* All types, most expressions and statements
* Exception handling
* Phobos runtime library
What's not Working
* Inline assembler
* DMD compiler intrinsics
That should get you started!!
Best,
-B

You mean there is a gcc-based compiler for D?
Yes, there is. It compiles on OS X too. It is a supported platform
I guess syntax highlighting is no problem, and getting xcode to call
the compiler may also work OK. But is it possible to get errors and
warnings in xcode just as for the other gcc languages?
And could I get debugging to work?
Don't know. Have you tried it? I'm interested in your results. I guess
if it closely follows the gcc syntax, you might be okay.
I haven't tried yet. That was why I was asking. To know if it was worth
trying.
Is it possible to incorporate a dependency analysis other than the
default #include one?
I'm afraid I don't know what you mean there.
Well, just whether you can use the standard Xcode build, or have to use
a makefile or something else. D uses the 'import' keyword, like java.
Actually, come to think of it, the D compiler takes care of all of
this, like a java compiler, so I actually don't think any external
dependency analysis is needed.
So have you experimented with any of this? Any luck?
Nope. I'll post anything I find.
